Shanghai's mom says Shanghai was adopted in December 2003 and
was just under a year old (I think). I found her on petfinder.com,
and they shipped her up to Massachusetts from North Carolina. In
North Carolina she was dropped off at a kill shelter to be
euthanized along with her seven puppies. Meanwhile she was just a
pup herself. Luckily, a rescue group found her and posted her on
Petfinder. She had a rough puppyhood but I've more than made up for
it since! She's spoiled rotten with anything and everthing she
could ever need. From clothes to accessories and a HUGE toybox
filled with toys. She loves going to the beach and running around
on her 50-foot leash. She's extremely smart and knows both hand and
voice commands along with figuring out on her own how to open a
sliding screen door and a regular screen door to get out... which
isn't a good thing because she's aggressive with most other dogs,
so now we have to be a step ahead and lock the doors! But she's the
best! And her wrinkles are just the cutest when she's sleeping. I
couldn't imagine life without her. To think someone had just thrown
her away!

Well she had a horribe puppyhood- but now she is getting the love she so well deserves. She is a beautiful dog- I'm so glad someone adopted her that can appreciate how smart she is and is willing to love her and spoil her.

Hi,
We to have a Shar-Pei x Retriever who has exactly the same face, only ours is only 12 weeks old, but it is great to see what she will grow up to look like. Was your pup hard to train? I feel that our girl is super intelligent but it's up to her when she wants to carry out commands.

Beautiful dog, lovely story -- congrats and thanks to you for saving such a wonderful girl!!! Her eyes are full of love for you -- comes through in the photos where she is looking straight into the camera!! Beautiful.

I have a 7 month old rescue named Hooch. His mom was a golden retriever and I believe his dad was a shar pei. He looks almost exactly like Shanghai! Most people say he is part chow because of the tongue, but I don't think so. His fur is not silky but rather horse haired and he has a little more dark fur than Shanghai but the face, tail and general shape of the dog is a match! He weighs in around 52 pounds and is 7 months old. Great dog..smart if a little stubborn. He can be a little aggressive, but we are working on it!
